CHAPTER 10 16-BIT I/O TIMER
10.4 16-Bit Free-Run Timer Operations
The 16-bit free-run timer starts counting from counter value 0000
released. This counter value is used as the reference time of the 16-bit output
compare and the 16-bit input capture operation.
■ 16-bit Free-run Timer Operations
A counter value is cleared under the following conditions:
•
An overflow occurs.
•
A match occurs with the output compare register 0 value. (Mode setting is required.)
•
Value "1" is written in the CLR bit of the TCCS register during operation.
•
0000
•
Reset
An interrupt can occur when an overflow occurs or when the counter is cleared by a match with
the compare register 0 value. (The compare match interrupt requires mode setting.)
